Jairzinho Rozenstruik is becoming a household name in MMA on account of his recent, jaw-dropping win over Alistair Overeem. But it looks like the feared striker is already a superstar in his native country of Suriname.

 Rozenstruik receives a hero’s welcome

As you likely know, Rozenstruik buzzed the MMA world at UFC DC on Saturday, by taking out Overeem with just four seconds left in the fifth round. After the thrilling finish it was revealed that Overeem had been given all four rounds by all three judges.

Well, since then, “Bigi Boy” flew back to Suriname, and as you can see by watching the videos below, he received a massive welcome. The first video also shows crowds erupting as Rozenstruik scored his comeback win.

Rozenstruik’s next fight?

Following his win at UFC DC, Rozenstruik (10 – 0) called for a fight with fellow, feared slugger, Francis Ngannou. The latter acknowledged the callout, but it’s not clear yet whether the match-up will happen.
